ABC is a British duo originally formed as a four-piece, and were one of the major players in the New Wave movement of the early 1980s. They could perhaps also be credited with creating the short-lived pigeonhole of 'Sophisti-Pop' - smart suits, clever lyrics and elaborate synth-based melodies. ABC was formed in 1980 after Martin Fry, a music journalist, interviewed the band Vice Versa for his fanzine Modern Drugs. They adopted Fry as lead vocalist and changed their name to ABC. They were pigeon-holed as part of the New Romantic movement of the time, which included bands such as Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet and The Human League.

The Greatest Love Of All Lyrics

Abc

Some men seek solace
Some take to drink
Some men find knowledge, yeah
At least thats what they think

Some take to violence
Streamlining their dreams
Some sit in silence
And learn what love can mean

Much further to go
Much further to crawl
But one day youll find
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all

The load is tough
The path is long
Strewn with rocks, yeah
But youd be wrong, so wrong

One single spark
Can start a prairie fire
When one man speaks truth
He fills this world with pure desire

Much further to go
Much further to crawl
But one day youll find
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all

One day united
One day free
Youll be rewarded
The one true path is unity

Fruit dont fall
Too far from the tree
One day well bathe
In true humility

Much further for truth
Much further to fall
I pray that youll find
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
